nope. (not according to the somewhat twisted and probably incorrect logic on the site I found it on at any rate ^^ )

thats what the website told me ^_^
You can take 5 from 25 only once, because 25-5 = 20... so if you take another 5 from it... you are taking 5 from 20...
I hate it when I cant decide what the correct answer actually should be ^_^

i guess its me again. have a go at this one!!
A marvel hangs from a man at his thigh, Beneath his tunic. There’s a hole in the tip; It’s stiff and hard as he sticks it in, When this lad lifts his clothes Up to his waist, he wants to greet The familiar hole with his dangle’s head Which he often before has filled for a while.
good luck!

Since apparently this is forum oriented. Oh! Oh! It's a key! And since I'm told it is now my go and in keeping with the spirit of the last riddle...
I view the world in little space, Am always changing place; No food I eat, but, by my power, Procure what millions do devour.

The sun! youre gonna have to do better than that! mwahahahaha!
What does man love more than life Fear more than death or mortal strife What the poor have, the rich require, and what contented men desire, What the miser spends and the spendthrift saves And all men carry to their graves?

how about this one!
This old one runs forever, but never moves at all. He has not lungs nor throat, but still a mighty roaring call. What is it?
